That’s pretty cool @daydreamer! I don’t particularly enjoy going to the store but i’m better at handling it than i used to be. I go if i have to.

same here @disciple I am usually terrible at keeping my fridge/freezer stocked and getting takeaways seems to happen a lot and i’m trying to stop that,

My cooking habits are shocking too like after getting all that stuff i only ended up making a piece and bacon lol it was ok but not a proper meal,

I live with my parents right now so i just give my mom money every month and she does all the grocery shopping because she’s going for them anyway. I am on the waiting list for an apartment, though, so i’m working towards being out on my own again. Then it will be weekly shopping trips for me again.

way to go @disciple having my own flat has been the best thing that has ever happened to me, i love being independent but it does have a few drawbacks like cooking, cleaning etc but in the main its been amazing for me,

I really hope you get a nice place and have a real good time there.

@pob i think you call them potato chips, they are ridged and welsh rarebit is a cheesy dish i think, i also got roast ox flavour haha (i’m guessing its like bacon)

thanks guys :slight_smile: i think it would be cool to compare shopping lists, i reckon each area has specific products lol

Now that I look at the receipt again I think it’s in British pounds which are worth more than the us dollar.

Oh. Ok. That makes sense.

yeah if it was dollars it would be about £1 = an extra 29c on every dollar

still much cheaper than I pay. I live in a very rural, small town and groceries are outrageous. I spend $500 per month for a family of 3 and I make almost everything homemade and frugal. That does include household items too though.

it was bought at a Lidl which is one of the cheapest shops but although it is a limited selection it is still quality i think i’ve got enough for roughly 14 meals, the whole lot came to about £35

my best buy i think was my Belhaven Best, its about £3.80 a pint in the bar near me and i got 4 pints for £3.49
